I want to use Sublime Text 2 as a low-level PDF editor because binary editors are painful to work with PDF files because they lack many of the features equiped by average text editors.But it sees that PDF files are treated as Windows 1252 and the offset returned by view.sel() is based that encoding.

So is it possible to add 8-bit AS-IS encoding to Sublime Text 2 to do such kind of things easily?
